This rating measures air conditioning performance over an entire season. The higher it is, the less each hour of cooling costs in electricity. For a bedroom or office air-conditioned all summer, that is a strong advantage, especially since this system belongs to the Sirius Heat series, designed to heat down to \u003cstrong\u003e-30 °C\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts other certified ratings are \u003cstrong\u003e15.8 EER2\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003e11.6 HSPF2\u003c\/strong\u003e.

For a bedroom above a garage, a corner room with two exterior walls, or a poorly insulated office, this reserve makes a difference. Baseboard heaters remain in place for the coldest nights, set a few degrees below the heat pump's setpoint.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIn summer, where this model excels\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn cooling mode, the certified range of 3,596 to 13,428 BTU\/h allows extended operation at low output, stabilizing the temperature and removing moisture from the air. The 15.8 EER2 rating, measured at 35 °C, is also among the highest in our DuraStar wall-mounted selection: performance remains excellent during heat waves. The \u003cstrong\u003eECO\/GEAR\u003c\/strong\u003e function further reduces consumption in cooling mode, and \u003cstrong\u003eSilence\u003c\/strong\u003e mode lowers noise to a minimum at night.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLogisVert and this model\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis system carries \u003cstrong\u003eENERGY STAR ID 2410690\u003c\/strong\u003e, but it does not appear on Hydro-Québec's current LogisVert list. The technical sheet therefore indicates a $0 rebate. If financial assistance is a deciding factor, the Sirius Heat 12,000 BTU with R-410A appears on the list with a $1,236 rebate, and the Sirius Heat 12,000 BTU with R-454B with a $1,440 rebate.

The industry is nevertheless moving toward A2L refrigerants with lower global warming potential: according to ENERGY STAR, the potential is 2,088 for R-410A, compared with 470 for R-454B.

Beyond the precharged length, 0.16 ounces of refrigerant is added per foot.
